    Accessing ms-ldm-data partitions

    I don't think you need to recompile the kernel for this. Doesn't it work with geom_part_ldm_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf?

    Solved Problems installing Firefox and Gnumeric

    Yeah, that's because the rc script does it for you on first start, so a service dbus start would have been enough here.

    Suggesting a new port (hfsfuse, a FUSE driver for HFS+ filesystems)

    I added sysutils/fusefs-hfsfuse just now. The runtime is however completely untested by me. It would be nice if someone could confirm that it actually works. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/464367

    libieee1284

    I doubt it. Do you really have a parallel port scanner? If not just turn off the IEEE1284 option in graphics/sane-backends.

    getting jsoncpp to compile

    On FreeBSD we link everything with libc++ and gcc always links with its own libstdc++. libc++ and libstdc++ are incompatible with each other. What happens is that jsoncpp installed from pkg or from ports is linked with libc++ (by virtue of being compiled with clang++) and your program (compiled...

    Driver for CH341 USB/RS232 adapter

    You need uchcom, but it should be loaded automatically when you plug it in.

    Using FreeBSD as Desktop OS

    So editors/leafpad actually installs a desktop file, as does editors/gedit. After installation they appear automatically in Xfce's app menu without me doing anything. You should be way more concrete here. Which applications do not install one or only install incomplete ones? Then start filing...

    Which games could I play in this platform?

    Oh please... It's in pkg-message in the ports directory. It will be the last message printed after successfully running make install in /usr/ports/games/openmw. It's available with pkg info -D openmw after installation in case you've missed it or want to refer to it later. It's on FreshPorts...

    Automating FreeBSD Install, setting ports configure options recursively

    Overwrite a global OPTIONS_UNSET=DOCS for just security/sudo in /etc/make.conf: security_sudo_SET=DOCS

    Which games could I play in this platform?

    Take a look at /usr/ports/games again. There are plenty of engines for older games there: like The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (games/openmw), Return to Castle Wolfenstein (games/iortcw), for many adventure games games/ags (see 59843) and games/scummvm.

    Howto: light desktop setup (2018 < update)

    Yeah, I don't like it either. But we have many Linux applications and games in the ports tree. Having LINUX off by default would mean that the binary packages of any of the */linux-* ports (e.g. games/linux-doom3) or other Linux applications will not have working 3D acceleration with NVIDIA...

    Howto: light desktop setup (2018 < update)

    linux is not an entire Linux kernel. It just implements a bunch of Linux syscalls. x11/nvidia-driver can be built without Linux compat by turning off the LINUX option. This works fine.

    Solved Issues with mainstream Browsers

    The issues with the browsers are well known. www/firefox has a list of missing pieces in it's post-install message. Also see this thread on freebsd-gecko@: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gecko/2018-January/007938.html Iridium has no integration with Google services by design (check...

    Regression in pkg 1.7.1, error code 70

    Run make deinstall reinstall to work around it. Also see 224244. Looks more like a ports revision number to me. Base is only at 330442.

    pkgconf --exists "gtkmm-3.0" returns nothing

    I think the path difference in Cflags is not the cause of the problem. Though it's certainly weird. It looks like there is an older gtk3 version installed than actually required. Are your packages up to date? What does pkg info gtk3 gtkmm30 return? "Package dependency requirement 'atkmm-1.6 >=...
